Does anyone here have access to three 24 port 100Mbps managed switches? The switches need at least two GbE ports each. We would only need them for two days max on a weekend. As I'm sure most of you can guess, the outcome is wicked.

I think I have one but it doesn't have the cable you need to program it. It's a Cisco.
Now that I think about it, it probably doesn't have GbE ports.

I have a console cable. No problem. Can you check about the GbE?

Our 2950's have addon GBIC ports, not sure if the 2900's have em.

I might have a dlink 24 port 'smart' switch with 2 gigabit uplinks on it that I can do without for a few days.
Why do you need managed? doing vlan or qos?

I requested managed to filter out these types of devices:

I'm thinking about requesting sponsorship from my employer. To do so I need to make a good business case.

Could anyone who works within the IT department for a large organization who would be able to attend a wicked event in Toronto please PM me with your organization name.

I've got one (1) 48-port GbE Dell switch.

AWESOME!

If we can get one more 24 port switch we'll be all set
